Bad ac adapter

use google translate
the above is fail sorry I am. no pointed fingers
my wild guess 99% batter is bad as most are.
good luck to you.!!!

8 beeps all the same length makes me think its an AMI bios with memory errors, try swapping the memory or check that its correctly inserted.

If the laptop is still working when it is plugged in , then the ac adapter is good and the battery is just bad. If the laptop will not work when it is plugged in then more than likely the ac adapter is bad.

i would try purchasing a universal laptop charger on ebay and see if it works. they are under 25 bux. worse case scenario you will have a backup ac adapter. be careful plugging in other ac adapters because the polarity could be wrong or it could have to much amps

One of two common possible problems. Either 1) Your AC adapter needs to be reset or 2) Your AC Adapter is bad.

Most power issues with the Wii can be fixed by resetting the AC adapter. You can easily reset the AC adapter by following these steps:
Unplug the Wii AC adapter at both ends (from the back of the Wii system and from the wall outlet or power strip).

The AC adapter must remain unplugged at both ends for a full 2 minutes.

After you've waited 2 minutes, plug the AC adapter into the Wii system and directly into a wall outlet, not a surge protector or power strip. If the power light comes on and stays on, then it appears resetting the AC Adapter worked.

If it's not working, you can get a *new* NINTENDO brand AC adapter at the following page. Beware of cheaper knockoffs around the internet.

hi,
try these two things if both don't work you should call dell tech support

1) take out the battery and the ac adapter and then push and hold down the power button for 15 seconds, this releases flea power in the laptop and makes it work sometimes
if it didn't work

2) take out the battery and put in the AC adapter and try to start your laptop on AC adapter alone, if it starts that means either your battery or *********** board is bad, you can check if the battery is bad by replacing it with a new battery and if it works with new battery that means the old battery was bad but if it only works without battery with ac adapter and new battery also didn't work, that means motherboard is bad, Call dell tech support

If you think the info given by me was helpfull please do rate me

You either have a faulty ac adapter; a bad power supply in your laptop; a bad battery; or a blown LED indicator light.
1. If the connection is not loose when you plug in your ac adapter try letting the laptop charge for a while. (If you are using the correct ac adapter)
2. Try removing your battery and using the ac adapter. If this works the battery is bad.
3. Try a new ac adapter.
4. Power supply is bad

If the ac adapter was plugged into the laptop at the time may be bad news. Unplug AC adapter, take out the battery and hold power button for 10 seconds. Then connect AC adapter and hit power. If that doesn't work put battery back in without ac adapter and hit power button.

If neither test works bring to repair center for diagnosis. Best case AC adapter would need replacing. Worst case Motherboard fried.

Thanks
